This was for a class project; we were supposed to take a poem then mix a soundtrack out of samples in a way that it conveyed a certain emotional feel, then make a stop motion animation in AfterEffects. I didn't want to take photographs, so I drew everything in Flash, exported each part as a sequence of JPEGs, then put them all together in AE. Now that the project's done, I imported the video into Flash and added a preloader and whatnot. Since it was originally a .mov video, there's some pixelation, so sorry about that.

Naturally, all the music I sampled came from the Audio Portal, so I guess I might as well list them to the side over there <--. See if you can figure out where each song comes in within the mixed track.

So, I guess that's all. Hope you sort of like it!

Author's Response:

it's not so much about story as it is about symbolism... or something.
